Mananita Pampera

Ex-Friendly Stone cold brilliance...thanks to Mr Murphy for the reissue! Favorite track: Mananita Pampera.

Paul Murphy This one takes me back. One of the first Jazz tunes responsible for a whole new set of gyrations on the dancefloor including Roy Haynes (QUIET FIRE), Freddie Hubbard (GIBRALTAR), Herbie Hancock (SLY) and more. This is special though. It's like a mirage come to life, the very first Jazz Room club tune hit by a totally unknown artist. THE very FIRST of many.
Favorite track: Al Bebbe Guia.

ENTREE LIBRE ne serait ce que pour El Beto cet album vaut le détour. Du jazz fou qui n'a pas pris une ride ! Favorite track: El Beto.

about

A STUNNING RHYTHMIC FUSION OF LATIN AND JAZZ WITH A UNIQUE SPIRITUAL PULSE.

If ever a record called be called a lost masterpiece then this record more than deserves that epithet. First released on an obscure French label in the 1970's it might have sunk further into obscurity and left no trace of it's passing but somehow a handful of copies turned up in various Jazz shops in London where it was snapped up by DJ Paul Murphy who was then playing to the embryonic jazz dance scene, based at the very first Jazz Room club: The Horseshoe in London's Tottenham Court Road, a decaying, seedy, sticky carpeted old West End ballroom that had seen better days. This and a select few records in a similar vein were being played to an appreciative audience who demanded tough raw percussive rhythms overlaid with some furious jazzy soloing and whenever this record hit the turntable it left even the most demanding groover sated.

It's a really fantastic collection from this barely known reedman and his excellent band which also features a guest appearance by American Legend Horace Parlan who is best known for his Afro-Cuban session "Headin' South" on Blue Note Records.

Superbly produced by drummer Peter Schmidlin, who has conjured up a spiritual modal mixdown of Afro-Cuban & Jazz extended percussive workouts that are uncompromising in their groove and which manage to sound both timeless and modern. The record is being re-released with the original striking artwork, guaranteed to be a talking point.

"Killer Argentinian saxophonist Hugo Heredia (on) a bonafide Electric Ballroom classic that’s been really hard to find for years... and it’s got Horace Parlan on piano!"
GILLES PETERSON
"Thanks Jazz Room Records for the rerelease of a stunning and truly epic spiritual album by Hugo Heredia. Each song is an intense and rhythmic exportation from an amazing multi instrumentalist.
For me, this is just the right blend of latin rhythms and jazz power all wrapped up in an adventurous spiritual vibe! Essential summer release."

First came across "Atlas" on Soul Jazz's CD compilation "London Jazz Classics" from 1993. Very pleased to learn it's not a one-off and the whole LP is a top notch collection of latin-jazz. Tip of the hat too to the excellent mastering and pressing quality of the vinyl edition. Ian Hammerton
